No 3: The pregnancy milestone

Assalamualaikum. This post is just for my personal record and just for fun hehe. Besides, I dont think my blog is read by so many viewers hehe so I feel more private here.

At the early stage of pregnancy, I hardly shared the news with everyone I know because of some reasons:

1) The pregnancy was too early and still fragile (I only announced it once I reached 14 weeks or entering the second trimester)
2) I don't feel good sharing it because there are numbers of friends or relatives who are still struggling to conceive. I always put myself in their shoes.
Well, of course I am beyond happy and thankful but I just don't brag so much about it. I just want to be relax and I am happy with it. Well, of course I do share some photos of me with growing tummy but I just want to be a lil bit low profile. But for my personal record here and for my kids to read in future, I want to share the milestone from the early pregnancy to 32 weeks. Boleh refer balik nanti if let say ada rezeki lagi in future.







18 weeks




Yups it's gonna be a girl.. In shaa Allah...😊

Well, for the record:
- I have gained 14 kilos till now at 35 weeks woohooo... well actually it is a normal weight gain for me for all pregnancies.. I gained almost 17 kgs when I carried Naeem.
- I hardly wear maternity dress or blouse. I prefer something that I can wear pre and post delivery.
- I still love to lilit2 my shawl till now.
- Love make up too but a light one.
-Love cooking so much
-I am more energetic this time around compared to previous pregnancies
-I am more organized (done all the checklist, my hospital bags for baby and myself are ready)

Ya Allah, Please help me to easy my baby delivery and may my baby will be a healthy, beautiful baby. 

Pregnancy boleh berjangkit among BFF?

Recently, there is one article which is widely shared in FB about how pregnancy can be contagious among best friends or close friends. Well, I am experiencing this with my few of BFFs. Alhamdulillah. It is such a wonderful feeling to get pregnant again (Allah Maha Baik) and it is even beautiful when you share this moment with your BFFs. May Allah ease each of our journey to have a safe and smooth delivery soon in shaa Allah. I have few BFFs who are currently sama2 memboyot with me. Seorang dah selamat.

 This was at early pregnancies. My Kit Kat BFFs. Actually there are 5 of us who got pregnant but Irda is not in the picture. When this picture was taken, from L-R, Sha was at 20 weeks, Bayne 12 weeks, myself 24 weeks and Lyn just found out that she was conceived. Miracle kan? 
 So in this group, my baby will make the debut first, followed by others.. for sure semua baby 2018.
 Me was at 30 weeks, Fina 34 weeks and Shu at 26 weeks. These are my Bffs at workplace. Well, Fina already gave birth to a baby boy on the 8th January 2018 at 37 weeks. Congratualtions mama! Now i am waiting for my turn dup dap dup dap

me, bayne and Sha

Ni paling best. Ni betul2 BFF yang besties yang paling close yang paling soul sisters. Hah tak tau nak describe macam mana dah how close we are. So funny kadang2. I still remember, when I was at my 13 weeks, I told sha that I am pregnant. Then, a week after that, we met up again and told me she was conceived! haha memang berjangkit ke apa. We were soo happy and tergelak pun ada. Then, like few days after that, we met Bayne for lunch and spontaneously we told Bayne we were pregnant ! hahahaha she was sooo happy for us. And guess what !!!! 2 months later she texted us saying that she got pregnant! LOL LOL LOL!!! Subhanallah.. Allahhuakhbar....Thank you Allah for giving us this rezeki and the best part is all of us (including the names I mentioned above) are expecting baby number 3! Coincident sangat u olls...

Paling sweet because I dengan Sha gap one month je. Now I am at my 35th week and Sha is at her 30 weeks. Subhanallah. And it is so meaningful to share this journey together as she is now staying nearby to my workplace. We had our lunch together quite frequently so it is very easy to hunt for our craving foodiess Alhamdulillah.

Lumut Affairs

Ok this one is a recent trip that we had ... The first short vacation in 2018. Actually, we got a free voucher to stay at Swiss Garden Apartment Damai Laut in Lumut for 3 days 2 nights and it is valid till March. Since, there is no way that we can have the trip in February or March because I am already at my 34th week ! I was reluctant at first knowing that the baby is in standby mode (well of course I am hoping that she will make her appearance somewhen in February), but after meeting my gynae 2 days earlier and he said it should be ok for me to travel. Just ensure that I bring along the necessities especially the hospital record book. Ok doc ! Well my hubby is the most excited one to go. We bring along my MIL (mak) and my SIL (Aina) for this trip. Luckily they joined us as mama is restless most of the times. I love this trip as I feel more connected with my MIL. Hope she loves the trip.
 After checking in, we went to the beach nearby the hotel. Beach lagi! But we love it! Hubby with his youngest sister and beloved mother !
 bam bam nye mak yung ni kan...hihi...takpe nanti i kasi gambar kurus kahkah
 Ok tunggu pantang nanti i kurus balik
 then we found a swing yang senget. Buai senget namanya haha so the boys were so excited
 Bestnya!
 I want too!
 Since the boys tak mau berganjak..lets take photos!
 Bising tau depa2 ni tapi cantik sangat..
 In our apartment that night...Luckily there was Disney Channel...Duduk diam 
 The next morning, we went to the pool and Naeem successfully got his Shark float. Tahniah Naeem!
 Pet sangat!
 Comelnya anak mama!
 After splashing session, we went out to Water Front Lumut. The place is so beautiful! We went to the jeti, bazar and pusat kraftangan. The Pangkor Island at the back. We did not go to the island as I don't think it's a good idea for a third trimester pregger like me to take the boat ride. Next time pulak.
 Sightseeing
 Ade2 je budak dua orang ni
 Haa kan i cakap hubby lagi besar dari i.. i tetap kurus kahkah #taknakterimakenyataan
 My hubby's fav, Jeruk !
 Puas hati ye bang dapat jeruk hehe

Then, we had lunch at one of the restaurants nearby and craving satisfied.
 Especially this. Young coconut. RM4. Cheap!
 Mee Udang RM10
ABC for Abang Fahri

Ok dah puas jalan. Now dah boleh duk diam2 haha

School Session 2018

Ok school holiday is over boys! It's time to go back to school. I kept reminding them on how many days left before they begin schooling for 2018 and they did countdown every single day. So, they kinda 80% ready haha. The other 20% was like "mama...can we have more school holidayssss".

Alhamdulillah, this year, there was no drama on the first day of schooling for both Abang Fahri and Abang naeem. Abang Fahri in primary year 2 and Naeem pre school year 2/ final year.
Dah besar anak2 mama. 

Abang Fahri


 Since Naeem's schooling began a week late (coz teachers wanted to focus on the new students during the first week), we brought him along to Abang Fahri's school. Both hubby and I took leave on the first day. Abang Fahri was ok just a bit cranky coz he had to wake up early after 40 days of getting up at 10 am in the morning. But after all, he is very easy to manage, had breakfast at home and we headed to the school at 7 am.
 I think there were only 3 parents who were waiting outside hahaha yea la they are already in primary 2! kahkah saja nak intai2..
 Then, at 2 pm, we sent him to Sekolah Agama. Looking at this picture, besarnya abang Fahri. Yes, he eats a lot nowadays. Alhamdulillah I am so happy.

 So, Mia, the cousin has joined Fahri in both schools, morning and afternoon. I hope they can look after each other. Mia in primary 1.
 Tengokla tu, Mia makan kuih je.. Fahri mesti nak nasi hihi

Naeem


Alhamdulillah... pun no drama sangat just lama jugakla sesi pujuk memujuk. Biasalah first day of school after a long break. Dengan mama yang tak larat dah ni.

Oh ya, harusla terpaksa papa n mama promised Naeem to buy him toys Ultraman if he goes to school hahha...Budak banyak akal..

Thank you anak-anak mama for being cooperative enough to go to school. Mama always prays that both of you love going to school, love knowledge and are surrounded with good people. In shaa Allah. Semoga berjaya dunia akhirat.

FTJ Re-united at The Jibby n Co

Assalamualaikum (baca dengan tone Dato Ct tau 😂 )

So, this is gonna be the final backdated post from December 2017's event. FJT stands for Friends Till Jannah, a whatsapp group of these beautiful souls of mine.. there are actually 8 of us in the group but for this lunch gathering, Tika could not make it coz she was away. We miss you Tika! It is a 5-year of friendship but we tag along so well Alhamdulillah. Even though we are not working together anymore but the sisterhood bonding is so strong with these cracky heads bunch of ladies! So we had our meet-up in a beautiful restaurant, The Jibby n Co located in The Empire Subang. 

 Nadia, Mun and Fya ❤
 Bayne, myself, Nas and Syaza ❤

Most of us are staying nearby in Shah Alam except for me staying Klang and Syaza from Damansara. However, since I am working in Shah Alam so do meet up for a quick lunch or brekkie at times. Thus, to meet Syaza, we need to ensure everyone is available. Thank you Fya for being the organizer as always.

 Introducing our foodiessss... Carbonara (Nadia's), Bolognese (mine), Pizza (Mun's), Syaza's which I forgot the name and Fya's Squid Salad. One picture is missing here. Bayne had her Grilled Salmon. All of them are soo super duper yummy. Great food you have here Jibby n Co!
 And a surprised cake for all of us ordered by Mun n Fya... yummy!
 Us..with the cake!
 Then, we had this Secret Santa Gifts Exchange (just for fun). 
 Us with the gifts. My secret santa was Bayne and she gave me Helena Shawl by Naelofar. Thank you babe! Love it!
 Syaza got her prezzie from Secret Santa Mun. A make-up kit and dress for her daughter Melissa! Lovely la Mun
 Then, these two mak buyong got a surprised baby gifts by Syaza. Thank you Syaza babe! So cute!

Then, as usual, perangai sengal melanda. especially with Bayne and Syaza.
 Hahaha mak2 orang ni tolongla perangai elok2 sikit!

Ok it is time for group photos!

 And Mun took the effort to get the upper angle. Nice.
Before heading back.. me at 32 weeks

Alhamdulillah for this friendship. It was so sweet of everyone to make time for this meeting. 3 hours seem not enough to catch up on everyone's updates. Maybe we should plan a staycation in future instead. In shaa Allah. I love u gurls!
